Transport lay-offs
Mar 03, 2014
BRIDGETOWN, Barbados, Nation News - The state-owned Transport Board has started laying off workers – and the Barbados Workers’ Union (BWU) was last night readying itself to respond. It also appeared last night that the matter was headed for the office of Prime Minister Freundel Stuart. While the BWU threatened late last week to “raise our sword” if workers were sent home and its executive council was meeting in an emergency session on the issue at Solidarity House at sunset yesterday, the board revealed in an official statement published in today’s newspaper that the separation process had indeed started last Friday.
